Item 5.07    Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
 
In its Current Report on Form 8-K, SI Financial Group, Inc. erroneously reported the results of its annual meeting of stockholders held on May 11, 2011.  With regard to the determination of how often to hold a stockholder vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers, that report inadvertently transposed the number of votes for one year and three years.  The corrected information is contained below.

With respect to the advisory vote on the frequency of stockholders voting upon executive compensation, approximately 69.2% of the votes cast approved the proposal that stockholders vote on an advisory basis every year to approve executive compensation.  At a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Board considered the vote totals, its earlier recommendation that the stockholders vote on an advisory basis every three years to approve executive compensation, its desire to follow the actions of its stockholders and determined to hold an advisory vote on the approval of executive compensation every year.

(a)           The annual meeting of the stockholders of SI Financial Group, Inc. was held on May 11, 2011.
